Nearly Natural 5-foot Robellini Palm Silk Tree

I'm feeling a bit taken right now. I received my crushed box that had been re-packaged from FedEX. Once I opened it, I had to open the leave, kind of like the annual tradition of taking out your artificial Christmas tree and making it look pretty again. The problems are: The leaves that extend pass the wire are unable to be manipulated back into shape, now forever creased and folded; this plant is nowhere near as full as the picture; and it is not 5' tall. The pot that is sits in is very small, but I expected that and was planning on putting it in a more decorated pot. The jury is out whether I will re-package and pay to ship it back.

• How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Color is accurate
• Please tell us about the quality of the product. Product is not as full as it appears and is NOT five feet once you fix the leaves.
• How accurate was the on site description of the product? While I realize that no silk plant is "nearly natural" I felt this product was cheap.

This is just what I needed to fill in a empty space behind an end table. It looks natural but the pot is something you want to hide. I put the plant in a fancy planter so now I'm happy with that solution, except I had an additional expense of purchasing a pretty planter which I had not anticipated.

I was so pleased how it was packed took it out of box and just arrange palm leaves to how I wanted it all my friends can't believe its fake

• How did the color on site compare with the actual product? exact
• Please tell us about the quality of the product. excellent
• How accurate was the on site description of the product? very accurate

I am happy with this silk tree almost looks real. A couple of the branches were bent up I ordered two and one was crammed in the box, the other was fine.
